other title: 声音与寂静
走过三十多个年头,慕尼黑名厂ECM 在曼佛艾克的掌舵下,为当代音乐的极致品味立下了最难以逾越的标竿。《寂静之音ECM》记录了这位音乐魔法师寻找声音的故事,从德国、希腊、瑞士到阿根廷,以旅行为灵感与-能量的来源,沿途捡拾着横跨爵士、古典、实验与世界音乐等范畴的风景,从曼佛艾克与长年落脚ECM 的Eleni Karaindrou、Dino Saluzzi、Jan Garbarek 等大师级创作者合作过程,体验他对声音近乎偏执的追求与高度敏锐,感受当代音乐环境中濒临绝迹的浪漫本质。Eleni Karaindrou 在电影中说“曼佛艾克每次都是百分之百投入,那是一种热情的天性,将自己奉献给当下,全力协助创作者。而这种融入作品的热情与专注,便是我们的电影要捕捉并流传下去的魅-力。大部分的人都听过ECM 发行的音乐、认识个别作品或创作者,但却鲜少人了解它们所属的系统,以及那个成立、经营整个系统的人。ECM 是当代音乐最具影响力的厂牌,而曼佛艾克是其中最重要的制作人。”──彼得盖尔 & 诺伯威莫

Behind Me - Bruno Ganz (2002)
Douban
Norbert Wiedmer actor: 布鲁诺·冈茨 / Erna Baumbauer …
Accent Films International Ltd.出品 Bruno Ganz is a true actor who after many films continues to work on the stage and in the sound studio (recording poetry and literature). No paparazzi and parties for this humble actor as this documentary clearly illuminates. It not only captures Ganz in rehearsal (for 'Faust') and backstage, but also allows him to do some of the shooting, too. "Behind Me" is a must-see for anyone interested in either Ganz' work or acting as a profession. Great behind-the-scenes look into one actor's world and you'll be truly amazed at the end of the film when they discuss how long and difficult the stage role of Faust actually is (the show itself lasts two days, and Bruno was on stage for 2/3 of the show's running time). Not bad for a guy in his 60's.
